Pros

100% ability to work from home Wonderful, bright, hard-working individuals (the BEST part of working here - but odds are they are all undervalued and overworked)

Cons

Most things . . . "unlimited vacation" - no one gets to take any, people have even been denied it (this was a really funny perk to add, btw, it just means they don't have to pay you out vacation time when you leave!) Expect to work ALL THE TIME - with no compensation for overtime, nights, or weekends - no bonuses nor reviews nor stock options High deductibles on that insurance TERRIBLE management - it does not feel like a company run by women either - bullying, yelling, abusive behavior is very normal . . . it's even obvious Jess steamrolls Amy System goes down a LOT (I wonder who incompetently manages systems?) - support folks get the brunt of it - half a dozen support techs left all at once

Poor leadership, unethical, go here at your peril

Pros

Unlimited vacation. For now. Interesting industry.

Cons

I've worked in plenty of startups, or companies experiencing rapid growth. I've never worked anyplace other than MJ Freeway that was so chaotically disorganized. It starts at the top with Amy and Jessica. They tout their ethical approach to doing business and how their employees are treated. Might want to check out their turnover, which is very, very high. Nepotism and favoritism abound, including hiring relatives into leadership roles. Ethics are situational. Leadership style is bullying and belittling, despite talking about how important their employees are and how enlightened leadership is. Why do people stay? The hope that eventually the company will sell and their internal equity grant will amount to something. They have chronic denial of service attacks, their systems go down with some regularity, they have no strategic plan and it's a wonder they keep the doors open. Salaries are poor. And while they pay the cost of benefits, the benefits are so bad as to be laughable. It's an interesting industry, on the plus side. But there are a lot of shady people involved in this industry, which is in its infancy in terms of being legal in most states, so plan to work with some interesting ethics when you're in the field.
